Agricultural Practices

We have three plots of land totaling just under 40 acres plus an additional 200 acres of pasture for our cows. Our main plot is located on Port Hudson-Pride Road in Pride, LA where Derek is the 3rd generation to farm on this, his grandfathers land. Although we aren’t certified organic we have a set of principles that we follow for the health of the land, our family and yours.

Our Beliefs and Practices

We maintain and build the soil by rotating crops, using integrated pest management, compost and cover crops.

We avoid the use of GMO seeds, synthetic pesticides or chemical fertilizers.

Most of our produce is grown without the use of pesticides, when advised we do our best to use USDA Organic Certified pesticides.

We do not use antibiotics, synthetic preservatives or additives on our produce.

We pick as close to the peak of ripeness as possible so our Members get the most nutritional value from the produce.

We are local and thus emit less pollution resulting in cleaner air for your kids.
